Reproductive & Maternal Mental Health

Reproductive experiences can affect far more than our physical health. They can reshape identity, relationships, sexuality, family dynamics, and how we understand ourselves.

Whether you're trying to become a parent, adjusting to parenthood, grieving a loss, navigating a reproductive decision, or simply finding that this stage of life doesn't feel the way you expected, therapy can provide space for the complicated parts.

Fertility, Pregnancy & Reproductive Experiences

There is no single way to feel about pregnancy, fertility, or reproductive decisions. Joy, grief, fear, anger, uncertainty, and relief can exist alongside one another.

Therapy can help with:

• Fertility challenges and treatment

• Pregnancy anxiety or depression

• Pregnancy loss and infertility

• Birth trauma or a difficult birth experience

• Abortion and reproductive decision-making

• Changes in identity, body, relationships, or sexuality

• Anxiety about pregnancy after loss

• Complicated or unexpected feelings about pregnancy or becoming a parent

You don't have to feel the way you think you're supposed to feel about a reproductive experience for your feelings to be valid or worth exploring.

Beyond the Postpartum Years

Reproductive mental health doesn't end after the first year of parenting. Hormonal and reproductive transitions continue across the lifespan, including changes related to menstruation, reproductive health, perimenopause, and menopause.

These transitions can affect mood, anxiety, relationships, identity, and our experience of our bodies—and deserve thoughtful mental health support.

Postpartum, Parenthood & Maternal Mental Health

Becoming a parent can change nearly every part of life. Alongside love and connection can come anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts, resentment, isolation, grief for your former life, or the unsettling feeling that you don't recognize yourself anymore.

I work with parents navigating postpartum depression and anxiety, perinatal OCD, birth trauma, identity changes, relationship stress, parenting expectations, and the transition into parenthood.

Sometimes becoming a parent also changes how we understand our own childhood and family relationships. Therapy can offer space to decide what you want to carry forward—and what you want to do differently.

My Approach

I am a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Professional (PMH-C) with advanced training and extensive experience in reproductive and perinatal mental health. My approach is trauma-informed and incorporates ACT, CBT, Narrative Therapy, mindfulness, and somatic strategies.

There is no “right” way to experience pregnancy, loss, parenthood, or reproductive change. Our work begins with understanding your experience rather than measuring it against what you were told it was supposed to be.

You deserve support for the reality of your experience—not just the version we're taught to expect.
